Thanks for your responses. I still prefer XMLmind and realize it probably was a Java issue. For some reason, I hadn't realized the "Save" screen had a scrollbar with more options. It blended in...I had looked at this area more than several times.
It might be nice to enable auto save for your customers by default, even if you made it a larger number like 600s.
